Great piece, Can't wait for for the religous right to post...Not.

Wow. What an excellent piece - a rousing challenge to a lot of fixed assumptions. It's totally made me think. Top work.

I am sure Sarah's children are going to be very proud of their mum when they read this article. She could start training them now to be porn stars as their is obviously nothing wrong with it in her eyes. Of course no mention of the sexual abuse of children as a result of porn which is so clearly demonstrated in the indigenous communities. Do you work for the 'adult' industry on the side?

That's a pretty stupid rhetorical last question, runner... try reading their blog instead of spouting ridiculous assumptions, statements and innuendo.

runner,

Why do you assume that people cannot be proud, or at least neutral, of being an advocate for the adult industry? Is it because you think that sex is 'dirty' or something? Are you still freaked out by the concept that your parents had sex, at least once?

It's quite simple runner, if you don't like looking at people doing the wild thing in front of a camera DON'T WATCH IT. Problem solved.

This aside, the article was a decent piece of work by a person who clearly knows that human tastes are variable and has actually bothered to do a modicum of research on the topic. Congratulations.

good article...and if such a young person can apply such reasoning mind to a biased manipulative article by horin and show its glaring failures by identifying where the 'reasonable ordinary person' mark should be...why does the editor of a large reliant newspaper publishes this article without fear of public/legal reaction...

I would like to add that sex presents as one part of activities with pleasure/relationship/procreation...and these groups are not mutually exclusive...and I agree that each group is so broad in personal preference that criticizing one aspect is obviously stupid...unless...makes me wonder about horin's sexual activities...

And as a male I already struggle with the 'pleasure' section...if only I can achieve those core muscles and abdominal strength to go like a stallion long after female has ejaculated while holding on to mine...sigh...
